Trump kept Vice President Pence in dark over Flynn-Russia call

Conway maintained that Flynn stepped down of his own accord after it became clear that he lied to Vice President Mike Pence about a conversation he had in December with a Russian diplomat. "The more the president becomes a political liability, the more I expect Republicans will find their voice", he said. "I have sincerely apologized to the president and the vice president, and they have accepted my apology".

The American president is now considering a handful of potential candidates to replace Flynn. Trump is also considering former CIA Director David Petraeus and Vice Admiral Robert Harward, a U.S. Navy SEAL, for the post, according to a senior administration official.

"Crimea was TAKEN by Russian Federation during the Obama Administration".

"I won't do it, because I don't believe in fake news or information that's not true,"Brzezinski said".

Mr Trump was informed in late January that Mr Flynn had not told Vice-President Mike Pence the whole truth about conversations he had with Russia's ambassador to the United States before Mr Trump took office, White House spokesman Sean Spicer said.

Michael Flynn handed in his resignation amid mounting controversy over his interaction with Russian officials, and a false assurance he gave that he had not discussed the issue of sanctions.

Two leading Republicans in the Senate, Bob Corker and John Cornyn, said the intelligence committee should investigate Mr Flynn's contacts with Russian Federation.

Kislyak's phone conversation, which was monitored and recorded as a matter of standard Federal Bureau of Investigation procedure, is now being investigated by counterintelligence officials. She claimed, "I don't know who had access to my account. He's speaking to the vice president relative to the conversation the vice president had with Gen. Flynn, and also speaking to various other people about what he considers the single most important subject there is: our national security".

He brought up how Kellyanne Conway was saying just yesterday afternoon Flynn had Trump's "full confidence", making O'Reilly wonder if she was being misleading or simply didn't know.

USA intelligence said a year ago that the FSB, Russia's successor to the Soviet-era KGB, had been involved in attempts to sway the election - which is why Obama barred American tech companies from exporting cyber tools to the agency.

Those rumors were denied by White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and presidential assistant Steve Bannon.

When Donald Trump promised to drain the swamp, we didn't realize it would start with his inner circle. "From what I understand, [it is] a regular course of action".

Questions are now being raised if Flynn's conversation with Kislyak was cleared as part of Trump's stated aim to improve ties with Russian Federation and whether he was asked to bring up sanctions or he was freelanced.

Conway's remarks in a February 9 appearance on Fox News "would establish a clear violation of the prohibition against misuse of position", Office of Government Ethics Director Walter Shaub, Jr., wrote to a deputy White House counsel in a letter dated February 13. Flynn's 24-day tenure as national security adviser was the shortest in history - half the average lifespan of a female mosquito.
